Banned Books 2010 – The Joy of Sex

Marshall University does not ban books! The information is provided to let people know what has been banned/challenged elsewhere.

2010

Restricted minor’s access in the Topeka and Shawnee County (KN) Public Library because the organization Kansasns for Common Sense contended that the material is “harmful to monors under state law.” Later the board voted 6-3 in favor of adopting a staff recommendation to keep the books where they are currently located on the shelves in the library’s Health Information Neighborhood section.

2009

Restricted minor’s access in the Topeka and Shawnee (KN) Public Library because a group contended that the material is “harmful to minors under state law.”
